A 9-year-old boy’s birthday party in the United States could have been a real disaster, his mother’s intervention changed the day’s fortunes. Little Jaydenn was celebrating his ninth birthday on December 31st, his mother had invited everyone in advance but no one showed up at the party.
His story – with an unexpected happy ending – was told by his mother Rosario Lopez, a woman from Utah (United States), who came up with a brilliant idea to save her little boy’s party.
Realizing that no one would come to the party, the woman posted photos of her lonely and disconsolate child during the party in a local Facebook group, asking if anyone would like to attend. This simple gesture was enough to unleash social solidarity: within a few hours, dozens of parcels arrived at home. Inside games, tickets, pastries, sweets and gifts of all kinds for little Jaydenn.
Mother Rosario’s appeal, in fact, did not leave the members of the local community indifferent, who worked hard to save the child’s birthday by sending gifts with delivery men.
“To be honest, I was moved to tears. I wasn’t expecting that at all. There are good people out there,” she told local media. “I can’t say how grateful I am. We are truly grateful from the bottom of our hearts,” she added.
